Sepsis: Know From Day One.

Anyone can get sepsis at any time in their lives. The disease can be extremely difficult to diagnose, as the primary symptoms mimic the symptoms of other critical care conditions. In treating sepsis, the first hour can be critical, the first 24 can be decisive; though risk can be assessed for the first 96. This site is meant to serve as a resource for patients, nurses and doctors to learn everything they need to know about sepsis: from early diagnosis to risk assessment over time.
